Figure 23A: Overlapping holes Figure 25:1/6 th OF THE SURFACE For further analysis to develop the doubly curved surface from Plywood and
MDF, the unrolled geometry broke down to 6 pieces symmetrically. So, some pat
terns and carving techniques are tried out on the 1/6th of the surface as shown in
Figure 25.
4 mm Plywood is used in the Figure 22, however, the material thickness and
the pattern did not work out to increase the ability to bend. The surface remained
the same, as rigid. In the Figures 23 and 24, the tests are held on the 4 mm MDF, and
the overlapping geometry is carved out on the edges, as shown in Figure 23A. Since
the material was stiff, the overlapping technique failed and the pieces broke while
trying. In Figure 24, it was the best option in terms of bending, compared to Figures
22 and 23. However, Figure 18 was only able to bend in 1 direction. So, some other
carving techniques and patterns required to be explored to develop the bending
